It is one of the Must-not-Miss book for everyone who want to become an impeccable sales professional in any field. Reading Who Dares Sells is much more than fun I also picked up new selling techniques whenever I come back to read even the same pages. I must thank to my former boss who gave the book as a Christmas present.

Ellis talks about a person's life cycle, and how we have to get out lives focused on goals that are acheivable. He puts his remarks in the context of sales, but the message is applicable to everyone who needs to pick themselves up and get going. There are a lot of suggestions on how to communicate better with people you need to influence and get something from (like an order). The book is excellent for people wanting to better themselves and start a new business. It is also relevant to experiences salespeople who need to recharge their batteries. Includes interesting British vignettes and case study illustrations. The book is a best seller in the United Kingdom, according to the jacket. All buyers qualify for a drawing for a week's trip to London, most expenses paid. Ellis himself personifies the advice he gives, and syles himself "the supersalesman".

In the course of my adult life, I have sold all sorts of products and services. I have attended many sales courses & read dozens of sales books with the aim of being the best. I must say that this book is undoubtedly the most comprehensive source of sound advice I have ever come across. It is well structured and good-humoured with a lot of content I have not come across before. I have since made this my bible of selling which I refer to again and again when I need a little inspiration or motivation. Mr. Ellis effortlessly manages to encapsulate everything you ever needed to know about being a success in the world of selling. Thank you.

Thank you Mr. Patrick Ellis for that guiding beacon on marketing.

The scope of this book is so broad that it doesn't go into much detail on any of the topics it attempts to cover! The author brags often about his success in selling and espouses rambling thoughts lacking any clearly defined point. No new ground is broken here. Much of the content is a rehash of principles better covered in many other books. There are a number of fine sales books out there. Sadly this is not one of them. I regret wasting the money I spent on this book and the time I spent reading it. I've never written a review before, but I feel a sense of duty to alert others. It's a catchy title and a beautiful cover, outside of that it's value couldn't be any lower if they had left all the pages blank.

The book Who Dares Sells has a power structure of presentation which have concepts that are easily grasped and understood.The ideas and presentation very informative and exhilarating. Keep readers smiling from pages to pages, like I do everytime I read this book. Life is theories and practices of modern marketing from this book, Who Dares Sells. The design and creation of this book attest to the fact that the author knows his trade. It is a must to have and own!

I've read a ton of sales books and picked this one up because it looked promising. Reading it has been a waste of time. The author spends most of your time rather vulgarly promoting himself. A little, hopefully subtle, horn blowing always happens in sales books, but usually the self-promotion at least alternates with the sales ideas you bought it for. Not in this book. The coverage Who Dares Sells is shallow and contains no new, or even uncommon, information. ... I kept thinking I would get to some good ides eventually, so I kept reading. I'll save you the time. Avoid the book. There's a reason that there are no testimonials on the exterior, the book doesn't warrant any. If absolutes, generalities, and the occasional inane motivational song from the author are your bag, maybe check it out, maybe. If you've found that kind of advice as worthless in sales as I have, find another book.
